I need a good small pocket knife with a bottle opener.

Don't forget that if the contents of the bottle are under pressure you can sabre the end of the bottle off like with a bottle of champagne.

Is it just me, or did the glass fracture leaving an angled sharp edge on that bottle? Not so good if you are drinking from the bottle.

I guess it depends on what kind of knife you want to carry. One of the SAKs with a bottle opener would work. Personally, I carry a BM/NRA 12750 mini Steigerwalt. At about 3.5", lock-back 2 5/8" 440C blade, a 2.25" AUS-8 modified Spey blade, & a bottle opener, it's pretty handy.

A beer bottle can be easily opened with a Bic lighter, there is no reason knife couldn't do the same.

BK11 or DPx HEST!

i keep a buck metro on my keyring. the little blade works pretty good for small tasks. i guess the price has gone up a little since i got mine.

I have one of these (the Buck) and it seems to meet your specs to a T. Very small knife and a bottle opener. Like the latter poster asked, what do you need the knife for? What are your cutting tasks? Just about anything could be used to open a beer bottle. Check out that Buck or a Victorinox Cadet.

That's one way of doing it. That looks a like black Kershaw shallot.

The only time I've used a knife to open a bottle was with the wave on an Emerson CQC10. Pulled out the teeth on the cap until it was loose enough to knock off, could never get it off in one motion.

Carry any knife you want, but get married. Then use the wedding ring to open your beers! Seriously, SAKs were the first thing I thought of when I read your post. I carry one every day to the office. On weekends I take out my nicer stuff.

The neck of the bottle should always break clean on a proper saber opening. Anything that is opened in this manner is always poured into a glass.
